9 Must-Try Indulgent Treats In Dublin This Christmas

While the lead up to Christmas is normally associated with a time of PANIC, it doesn't necessarily have to ring true. Among all the rushing and buying presents, it's essential to take a few minutes and have some time out.

You can bring someone with you or you can make an executive decision that it's solely me time and no visitors are allowed while you chill out.

We're here to try and help and have come up with nine must try indulgent treats in Dublin this Christmas where you can clock out and switch off from the festive fiasco.

(Disclaimer: I am new to the city so some of these might come as no surprise to you).

1. A Christmas donut from The Rolling Donut

We know what you're thinking and tbh with you, we're thinking the exact same...

7. *New* Christmas Afternoon Tea at The Westbury

You'll come for the tea but you'll stay for the bitching Christmas tree and beautiful decorations.

Afternoon Christmas Tea at The Westbury is a must especially after an eventful evening of shopping on Grafton Shopping (I don't mean to keep going on about it but how can one person do so much shopping?).

It's only available until 6th January 2018 and once it's gone, it's gone foreverrrrr...

"Enjoy the roaring wood fire, extra outdoor heating and warm snuggly blankets as you stuff yourself like a little goose on their boozy treats."

This sounds absolutely ideal at a time where you wouldn't be long getting frostbit once you step outside the door.

Sophie's Boozy Christmas Treats are a must and when they say they are offering a winter warmer, they mean something that will raise up that temperature and restore normality.

Tipping in for a festive tipple has never been so enjoyable.

9. Balfes Warming Hot Toddy Menu

Balfes is located at the heart of Dublin’s creative quarter and is the perfect place to stop and warm up for those shopping or socialising, with a new festive Hot Toddy menu inspired by the best seasonal fruits and spices.

Sit back, relax and watch the festive season unfold from the heated terrace with a Balfes signature Hot Toddy and a beautiful herringbone wool blanket by Donegal Woolen Mills on your knee.
